Muum maam (moom mum) named after thai slang for “little glutton”
or (to eat) sloppily. Muum maam was established in 2010 at Surry Hills and
Muum Maam Barangaroo in 2016 as part of Sydney’s biggest food hub near
the iconic harbour, at Barangaroo south.
Right in the centre of
Sydney’s thriving culinary scene, we focus on using
fresh ingredients & seasonal produce with traditional flavours and
contemporary techniques.
We continue the same concept as our
original sister restaurant, Muum Maam Surry Hills (closed permanently),
with quick thai street food during the day, and casual dining in evening.
Our entire team looking forward to welcoming you and your guests
for a memorable & enjoyable dining experience
Inspired by his mother’s home cooking,
chef Santo love affair with food started when he was
a young boy.
The family’s backyard was allotted to grow fresh
vegetables and herbs, since then the idea of always using fresh
produce has been deeply planted in his mind.Chef Santo has
more than 10 years of experience working with sydney
famed restaurants including Longrain restaurant
(Surry hills).
In his 9-year tenure in Longrain, Santo
worked his way up from entry level positions to head chef
until 2015, His skill and tenacity as a chef were
once again challenged when he moved on to China Lane
Restaurant and Billy Kwong in Potts Point. To Santo,
nothing is quiet like thai cuisine where aromatic ingredients
are combined in harmony and balanced to produce that
characteristic rich and intense taste
